Crate pgfplots

A Rust library to generate publication-quality figures.

This crate is a PGFPlots code generator, and provides utilities to create, customize, and compile high-quality plots. The inclusive feature allows users to fully process figures without relying on any externally installed software.

The library’s API is designed to feel natural for LaTeX and PGFPlots users, but no previous experience is required to start generating publication-quality plots in Rust.

Quick Start

To get you started quickly, the easiest way to generate a plot is to use a Plot2D. Plotting a quadratic function is as simple as:

use pgfplots::axis::plot::Plot2D;

let mut plot = Plot2D::new();
plot.coordinates = (-100..100)
    .into_iter()
    .map(|i| (f64::from(i), f64::from(i*i)).into())
    .collect();

plot.show();

It is possible to show multiple plots in the same axis environment by creating an Axis and adding plots to it. An Axis and its individual Plot2Ds are customized by AxisKeys and PlotKeys respectively.
